There you go again, B.D., forcing upon the LUG an appreciation for
photographic content and communication over whinging about equipment.

Thanks for making this available, Paul. This content is more than 
King...This content is IT! These photos smack the viewer right in the face 
and make the viewer SEE. It's what meaningful photography is really all 
about. It's not the Red Dot. It's not the brand name. It's not the country 
of manufacture. It's not the film brand. It's not the lens quality - it's 
the content: the subject and someone with a camera and vision. And I would 
urge anyone looking at this to go on to the Gallery and see some of the 
other work produced by this project. Really terrific.
